Lucky Bamboo/money tree plant


Question
The lucky bamboo saga continues.  I have killed two in the past.  I have had three in the last 4 months.  After I just got them they did extremely well; new growth and radiance.  They are in 17 inch diameter pots.  About 2 months ago two of them started shedding their leaves and look quite bare right now.  The third continued to do well.  I had to move it from a corner area to make way for a Christmas tree.  I guess it wasn't happy and it too started to drop leaves.  It's now looking like the other two; sad.

Is there any hope in saving them?  If so what can I do to salvage them.  If they are not is it worth getting some new ones?  Or will they inevitably end up like the last 5 I have bought.  I really like them when they are doing well.  Thanks for your response.

Answer
Hi Peter,

Are you having trouble with lucky bamboos or with money plants? They are two very different plants, although luck and money do seem to often go together!

Let me know which it is that you have so I can help you properly.

Regards,
Will Creed
